Good on you Ivana -baby and yes you may still change your mind and you be entitled to do so - I used both. I flushed the big bits (we adopted DS @ 1 so there few no2. liquid ones IYKWIM). I found it easy. It only took a minute put in bucket to soak / and we machine washed once a day - took 5 minutes to put on the line and another 5 minutes to fold when dry if that.
Disposables I used for going out mainly and later when DS was about two he would soak thru a double cloth nappy/plastic pants and his PJ's - because I think he held it in and let it go at once.
LOL - He looked like a sumo wrestler with DN on.
Then I had use a Huggies and a cloth nappy over the top to stop the morning drenching.
I passed on all my cloth nappies to a friend a few years ago and she was definately going to use cloth for cost/enviroment too but somone gave them a nappy service for a birth gift and disposables - so she ended up them using as chuckup cloths mostly. I am not sure what she uses with no.2 now 6 months - money is tight so she may have changed back.
I like to think I will use combination of cloth /disposables this time round even with twins.
When I was nursing in children's ward we only had cloth nappies and folding them was a big job (couple hundred at a time) but we would sit and chat as we folded. I didn't find leakage too much a problem even with bubs with diarrhoea.
